Wrestling with Isaiah

"Charles Telfer examines the work of Campegius Vitringa (1650-1722), a leading figure in 18th century biblical studies. Admired by Rambach, Franke, Bengel, Delitzsch, Gesenius and the Princetonians, Vitringa's magnum opus was a commentary on Isaiah (1720). After a biography, Telfer analyzes Vitringa's "canones hermeneuticos" alongside his exegetical praxis in Isaiah. With a literal/spiritual hermeneutic focusing on the historical (à la Grotius) as well as on Christ and his kingdom as Isaiah's substance (à la Cocceius), Vitringa was a scholar's scholar who was appreciated for his orthodoxy, piety and pastoral concern."--Back cover.
